Thenextworldwar the DIs must've ripped him in two 🤣

@@davecrupel2817 disappointing an officer is worse than pissing off your DIs. You don't get punished, but it hurts your soul.

@@BigDictator5335 So.....I was on duty one night, and company CO comes through our squad bay. I greeted him good and LOUD! "Good evening, SIR"....I forgot to f'ing salute. I know, reeeeeeeeeee! All he said was "I guess we don't salute officers now?" I'd have rather been smoked!

USMC Rebels I used to be in the British army, as a privet I went to salute a officer. I said good morning sir only to then find out the officer I was saluting was a woman. We don’t really do the hole shouting at privets like the us marines but damm she went off on one with me. All 6 foot 6, 24 stone (About 330 pounds I think) I found out later that allot of new guys make the same mistake with this particular officer as she was a bit of a tom boy. Fast forward 6 months and we were doing some battle pt (What we call a beasting session) everyone always avoided me on out battle pt sessions as I was a big heavy guy that no one wanted to try and carry. And look who’s late. She got paired up with me because she was late and I knew all the others were enjoying watching her suffer as she was always so keen to jump on privets. Now this 5 foot 5 officer had to carry me in various ways, some of us think the pti’s knew what was going on and they made us do a extra hour of pt. Ohh I enjoyed that beer that night at the scoff house (Dinner hall)

@@Imperialismusic Funny thing...In the US Military, it's appropriate to call an officer of any gender "sir"or "mister". It even gets referenced in (nerd alert) Star Trek.

I looked for this comment right away

Lolz

Yep 😂

6:24 lmfao

Is it funny that the Dutch Army works on their brains too ?

lmao! Yess!

@ WolfGang2299 It most certainly did, but there's no way I can prove it to you.

+hellyeagetsome I believe you

hellyeagetsome yep

they get damn pissed out of nowhere....then next thing you know is the platoon guidon is speared in the dirt, flag down., especially during BWT..or any hump for that matter..doesn't happen to all, but antics like this do happen

+THATfoolJOSH He's an officer and a gentleman. I remember during Sergeant Major inspection in the Army I lucked out having our company commander (Captain) inspect me and my wall locker. (My buddy across from me got the Sergeant Major's wrath. I was of course, nervous and the Captain ordered me to about face while he inspected my locker. I somehow did a right face, and the Cpt. turned to me with a puzzled look and asked "What was that a half about face?" I replied "Just a little nervous, Sir." He smiled and said, "I know. Good work on your locker." Meanwhile my buddy is still getting his ass reamed by the Sergeant Major because he left a thumbprint on his enlisted US brass.

+James Robert Officers also know that putting an unknown person in front of a recruit, and that person being a Captain, can be intimidating as hell. Recruits won't know to deal with them, so it's also an officer's job to remain determined but calm.

Alex K. It's just like that senior DI stated in the video about how the recruits have a 'brain dump' when someone new is put in front of them. I remember all of our officers in the Army were pretty cool, like our CO who upon seeing me and another guy from our company walking to the motorpool stopped in his POV and gave us a lift. Our CO and XO were both awesome in my opinion. We of course had a couple of officers whom we nicknamed 'Sergeant' so-so because they acted like NCO's in the way they thought they had to get their hands on everything instead of letting the NCO's do their job. It was the same thing reversed with a couple of our NCO's whom I loathed because they thought of nothing but looking good in front of officers for their own advancement at our expense.

Calm, cool, and collective it’s the quietest guys in the room that’d the deadliest he don’t need to try and act tough

I’m dead from that comment

I guess you failed to notice the pinky was in the flash suppressor. Index was in the breech. The FS was dirty so he showed him the pinky that he just got residue onto.

good luck haha...

I hope you realize when you make that choice its final... and it will change your life forever.

Just remember: its never personal, just training. Good luck

Semper Fidelis!

Noble goal, good luck. Which one are you going to ? Parris Isl or San Dieg ?

*Marine

+Robert Jr. Brown. Good luck, I wish you well. I plan on joining the MCJROTC as soon as possible, then going to Parris Island. Again, I wish you well.

I do agree with this statement. As important as it is to know who can hang, DI's know that it takes more time and paperwork to get rid of a recruit than to successfully train one, as well as more rewarding.

You graduated yet?

thats right

how'd you do?

@@dalemay9912 I think Hes dead 💀lol

Yeah howed you do?

How u do

You still around bro?

Ooh! That was during Nam. I can imagine what boot camp was like back then! 😬😱😮

+sErgEantaEgis12 Yep... you just respond with AYE SIR and hope it wasnt a yes/no question

+Trevor Anderson well then. I'm gonna have an interesting time when I join

Oh, I'm sure most recruits learn pretty fast what it is they're saying, haha.

Ohhh I'm a city boy too, but when I went to parris island I picked it up very very quickly!

sErgEantaEgis12, once you been in combat, baptized by fire all the yelling and games you played in bootcamp all make sense.

You need to really get in the habit (as a marine) to make sure your uniform is properly worn. If someone above your rank, such as Sergeant Major, sees the fact the smallest thing from your buckle to medals are off, you can get your ass chewed. That’s what he’s saying about the beginning of the video.

cloudykai he probably got his ass chewed. Perfection and nothing less. A mistake on a uniform disrespects the Corps.

M-16 A3 at least in the mid 90's. It is nice for the lefties to not get hot brass under their collar at the range

Did you??? Lol

This a marine we all work together supposed to anyway

@@HateTheIRS he didnt 😂

I was on that platoon got discharge cause od eye problem... i have the same situation as your... just move on

To try is important, to succeed is given to you by God, if you first do not succeed, God is telling you that is not you

You tried that’s all that matters. Things happen beyond your control.

Did you let that define you? There are lots of opportunities in the world, challenging, prestigious, demanding, where you really had to earn it. Did you accomplish those instead?

Please, be comfortable in the fact you had the balls and guts to even sign up for the US Marines. Every single man and woman in the Navy, Air Force and Army, no matter how good they are, didn’t sign up for the US Marines. You, gave it your best shot, and you didn’t chose a bad lung. USMC US ARMY

Wtf ?

Did u

BEEFBURGER BURGER then follow ur dreams

BEEFBURGER BURGER go to college

wow bro thats deep

PrinceSombraTheBrony Vlogs marines arent dreams. Theyre nightmares.

If you want to be a marine..you go to college...and then get lost on the way.

Nah that's just a frog voice

As a former DI (84-86 PISC) what happens when you begin a cycle is you loose your voice within 5 minutes, losing your voice forces you to force air from your diaphragm to be heard, as a result of using your diaphragm instead of your vocal chords you are actually louder than the 70 recruits. So for 3 months you have a really loud voice but a week after you graduate your platoon and stop using your diaphragm to speak loudly you lose it. When you pick the next platoon it starts all over again.

Cirhs

"LET ME CATCH ONE OF YOU... WE GONNA HAVE P R O B L E M S."

I've often wondered the same thing. I was right after you 1973 to 1977. I was a 3531 Truck Driver and hated it. When I was transferred to Camp Foster Okinawa, they asked me if I would like to work in the Company Office. After that worked at Bn S-1, then changed my MOS to 0151 Admin-Personnel. Then back to Camp LeJeune H&S Co H&S Bn 2nd Force Service Support Group, for my last 2 years. I worked at the Company Office and my last 2 years and not ONE day in the field. Semper Fi from an old Marine Sergeant.

*Marine

Me too man, I wasn't willing to Lie about my past drug use so the recruiter wouldn't let me go to Mepps.

PTownConcealed go to another recruiter and lie

TheGambler CrisisIsFake They'll find it anyway, they have pretty thorough drug tests dude.

Matt Persiani As long as he stays clean.

Can definitely agree with you. I was actually a part of Lima Company, Plt 3080 but I got dropped from training entirely during the end of phase 1. Back to the point though, I could definitely tell the Drill Instructors wanted to go that little extra step but obviously they couldn't. Especially not with that Muslim kid jumping off Kilo's deck and killing himself and the following investigation.

And if he did? Who cares. It's boot camp. The Drill Instructors are supposed to make life a living hell for the recruits. That's how the Marines are supposed to be made. Now we have all these whiny ass parents and bleeding hearts screaming foul and abuse. Next thing you know recruits will be able to start giving "triggered" warnings to their drill instructors without being smoked for it and bitching out of training when they have an upset stomach. Also God Bless You 09jitters and thank you for your service.

No one even knows what Mothers of America is anymore. Marine Corps Boot Camp has changed over the generations. A "Full Metal Jacket" type DI would get punched through the bulk head if hetried his games on a 26 year old WW II recruit raised in the depression.From the 60's through the 80's the Corps could get away with "Full Metal type" Boot campantics because they were dealing with a generation reared on respecting authority figuresand the vast majority refused to tell about what really was going on out of peer pressureand wanting to prove something to themselves.Todays generation would never tolerate getting cold cocked by a DI for being out of stepor not knowing right from left. Any DI who pulled that these days would be facing prisontime and would be thrown under the bus by the Marine Corps your head would spin.The quickest way to get women mixed in with men in Marine Corps Boot Camp is to letone DI put on the nostalgia glasses and try to go back to a time that will never come again.Not in this age of the Internet and not when you have a generation raised to report abusefrom authority figures and institutions ranging from the church, teachers and sport coaches.What happens in Boot Camp is no longer a matter that active duty Marines can put behind them and old salts can fondly remember. it will get out, Congress will freak out and the Corps will promisechange.I went through Marine Boot Camp in 1986,served as a Rifleman for 6 years and still love the Corps.I think it's not helpful and even a bit dangerous to the Corps future when you have old salts pineingaway for the good old days when a DI could literally commit Battery on a Recruit, because it was "Character Building"

"whiney ass parents" have been a concern of the Corps since Ribbon Creek in the 50's.The Corps saw it as abuse when a drunken DI over stepped his authority and got some kidskilled for nothing. thats why another layer of oversight in the form of the Series Commanderwas created to prevent such B.S.The Corps has to take orders like every other service. Saying "It's Boot Camp" to cover upthe few bad apples who can't walk the fine line between tough and abusive will not be tolerated.It's the attitude that the Corps doesn't have to evolve it's Basic training with the times the way itdoes it's weapons systems,is the very reason we can't have nice things.

Your opinion matters, only not with me. Privates that were going to Vietnam had to learn that what they were going thru with us was nothing compared to what they were going to see and live through. The Corps will always live in my blood, but after the mid- seventies, it went to shit. There was a reason for hands on training, and it was delivered for a reason. Second guessing was NOT and option. You have your opinion and I have mine. We will never agree. Semper Fi!!

Loss of voice from all the yelling

Maybe not using the diaphragm to project their voices

Then go do it yourself.

+GHP lol thats whats so funny I did years ago

I'm sorry for that lol, I'm going in next summer

Nothing ever does when you are watching. Sky diving, pro sports, Indy racing, equestrian jumping, even boxing never seen that hard when watching. Then you try it. Like Ranger school videos here. Doesn't seem that awful. They can't show the fact the guy hasn't slept in 3 days, is malnourished, his feet are bleeding, his whole body is chaffing and scabbing up, etc.
